Journal ArticleDOI
Achieving the Balance between ROS and Antioxidants: When to Use the Synthetic Antioxidants
TL;DR: There is a need for accurate determination of individual's oxidative stress levels before prescribing the supplement antioxidants, as both extremes, oxidative and antioxidative stress, are damaging.
Journal ArticleDOI
Skin Photoaging and the Role of Antioxidants in Its Prevention
TL;DR: It seems that skin's antioxidative defence is also influenced by vitamins and nutritive factors and that combination of different antioxidants simultaneously provides synergistic effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Role of Antioxidants in Skin Cancer Prevention and Treatment
TL;DR: Skin cells are constantly exposed to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress from exogenous and endogenous sources and the only endogenous protection of the authors' skin is melanin and enzymatic antioxidants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Free Radicals and Extrinsic Skin Aging
Borut Poljšak,Raja Dahmane +1 more
TL;DR: The most important strategy to reduce the risk of sun UVR damage is to avoid the sun exposure and the use of sunscreens and to use exogenous antioxidants orally or by topical application in preventing oxidative stress and in enhanced DNA repair.
Journal ArticleDOI
Strategies for reducing or preventing the generation of oxidative stress.
TL;DR: This paper addresses oxidative stress and strategies to reduce it with the focus on nutritional and psychosocial interventions of oxidative stress prevention, that is, methods to stabilize mitochondria structure and energy efficiency, or approaches which would increase endogenous antioxidative protection and repair systems.
